TRIPS BY MONTH

Tim Dyer

Tim and his wife Kathy founded White Squall Paddling Centre in Georgian Bay in 1984, which was initially devoted to ski instruction but they realised quickly that kayaks would be the perfect craft to explore the Georgian Bay coast.

Tim fell in love with coastal kayaking while guiding on the west coast of Vancouver Island and is now a Paddle Canada Sea Kayak Level 3 Instructor Trainer with Level4 Skills, an AECSKO guide, a member of the National Paddle Canada Sea Kayak Certification Committee, and is trained in Wilderness 1st Aid and Swift Water Rescue.

In winter, he teaches skiing at the local ski club while in summer when work permits he occassionally escapes for a canoe or kayak getaway with family and friends, never tiring of spending time in his backyard of beautiful Georgian Bay.
